I consider myself fortunate to come across individuals like Frank Manheim during my lifetime. Frank is the benchmark for a “knowledgeable nonprofessional classical music activist”. His passion for the art moves him well beyond pontification into that realm of activism.
His personal research and effort into a variety of endeavors to benefit classical music in a number of mediums are simply too numerous to mention. Frank’s contribution recounts a lifetime of personal experience and is filled with so much good material you’ll need to read it through a few times just to absorb everything.
